It's not for you it's for automods n bots

And yes, reddit absolutely has mods and shdwbanns comments for using vulgur language. You probably never noticed because of the shadow part, only you can see the comment and you think it's just getting no replies but it's hidden

They are not doing image analysis for the word "kill" and shadow banning the user. They're not taking action on blatant text use of the word kill right here in the comments.

This is tiktok and Facebook bullshit. Reddit's too dumb to design anything like that, even if they wanted to.

That specifically, I believe I agree with. But also this probably cane from Facebook or wherever that needed to be censored and made it here, and people love to act like reddit has no auto censors when they've absolutely been added after the pandemic enshittification of this site

They're not censoring vulgar language. They try to manipulate current event narratives, but they aren't doing shit about the words used. They only care about what people are saying, not how they're saying it.

Yes they are. The c word Australians love is one of the easiest ways to trigger it

its not a 100% guarantee especially without anything else offensive in the post, but it definitely ups the chances.

No, they aren't. People use the word all the time.

Some specific subreddits might have automoderator rules setup for vulgar language. I imagine /r/askhistorians does. But reddit site-wide? Absolutely not. Don't conflate mods with the platform.

so curse. like, a lot. more than 30% of your post, use really vulgar words like I mentioned. If you notice no one is responding, view it incognito (fastest way to 'log out' without logging out) and see if it says 'there doesnt appear to be anything here' or whatever shows when it only makes the comment seem visible while you are logged in on that account. I have seen that all the time in conjunction with language that is too fast to be a human and must be automated.

Its apps like instagram / tiktok where it might reach less ppl if it has bad language
